For some drugs, the level is optimized (for example, diuretics) or up-titrated to the target dosage. Imbalance between the various drugs, their side effects, patient diet and other factors can lead to decompensation and costly hospitalization. Cardiac decompensation is typically marked by dyspnea (difficulty breathing), venous engorgement and edema and each decompensation event causes further long term deterioration of the heart function. Furthermore, maintenance of the proper regimen requires frequent contact with the patient that consumes signification medical resources.
